Violations
resulting in P3 penalties tend to fall between serious and intermediate in
nature. While they might include general “categories” of infractions similar to
those in P4 (e.g. unauthorized parts; failing to meet specs; etc.), they tend
to pertain more to secondary componentry or systems; modifications of lessor
significance; go/no-go measurement failures of an intermediate nature.
This
infraction violates Sections 12-1
- Actions detrimental to stock car racing and 20-12 – Suspension:
All front end and rear suspension mounts and mounting hardware must not allow
movement or realignment of any suspension/drive line component beyond normal
rotation or suspension/drive line travel.
As
a result of these violations, crew chief Mike Kelley has been fined $50,000 and
placed on NASCAR probation for six months, starting Jan. 1, 2015 through June
30, 2015. Additionally, car chief Patrick Magee has also been placed on NASCAR
probation for six months starting Jan. 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015.

NASCAR still believes in schoolboy terminology. NO OTHER MOTORSPORT defines rulebook violations as detrimental to their organization, just the iron fist of Principal France..
Why don't they have an all star race with only a cubic inch and weight rule.That would be a race to watch
